Kubediff	Kubectl diff
Notice that kubediff has removed the hated managedFields

Used to sanity check and understand what has changed between environments.

This cli tool written in Rust is a wrapper around kubectl diff and is supposed to diff one or multiple projects instead of single files against any environment you want, be it docker-desktop, dev, prod.

It takes a glob pattern to one or more projects and beautifies the output so you can get an understanding on what differences there are.

Ever asked yourself, what is deployed on my cluster? Or,

• are all changes applied to the cluster?
• What differences are there between the environments?
• What have I forgotten to deploy?
• Has something changed without us knowing it?
• Forgot to add a change in git after hotfixing it in prod? Well, look no further...well a couple of lines further, I guess...

We will loop over the projects files and run kubectl build, then pipe the output into kubectl diff and then process the output of that to make it pretty.

• yq is needed for less clutter (can be made optional fairly easy)

Download and extract the binary.

KUBEDIFF_VERSION=0.1.5 && \
KUBEDIFF_OS=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu && \
wget "https://github.com/Ramilito/kubediff/releases/download/${KUBEDIFF_VERSION}/kubediff_${KUBEDIFF_VERSION}_${KUBEDIFF_OS}.tar.gz" && \
mkdir -p $HOME/.kube/kubediff && tar zxpf kubediff_${KUBEDIFF_VERSION}_${KUBEDIFF_OS}.tar.gz -C $HOME/.kube/kubediff

Add it to your PATH in .zshrc/.bashrc.

export PATH="$PATH:/home/$USER/.kube/kubediff"

Se the available commands by running kubediff -h

Regular usage would be to list your projects in the config.yaml file located at the install directory

Few projects, will use the kustomization file located at that path:

configs:
    include:
        - "~/projectone/serviceone/k8s"
        - "~/projecttwo/servicetwo/k8s"

Many projects (monorepo), will use glob pattern to find all services:

configs:
    include:
        - "~/monorepo/Services/**/k8s"

Many environments, will suffix the variable to end of the paths in config.yaml, example below will look in "~/monorepo/Services/**/k8s/dev"

kubediff -e dev

You can also bypass the config by passing either -path or -inplace argument:

kubediff -p ~/path-to-dir-or-file
kubediff -i 

• Remove, make optional or include dependency on yq
• Change theme with input
